Do men's elderly childbearing have an impact, and do men's elderly childbearing have an impact on health? What are the risks of men having children late?

Male elder childbearing means that men give birth at the age of over 35. Compared with women, male fertility has a greater advantage in age, but with the increase of age, male fertility will also decline. So, does the elderly male fertility have an impact on health? What are the risks of men having children late? The following will elaborate on this from four aspects.

1、 Decreased fertility

With the increase of age, the quality and quantity of male sperm will gradually decline. The study found that the peak period of male fertility is between 20 and 30 years old, and the number of sperm will gradually decrease every year thereafter. As older fathers may have bad habits such as irregular diet, excessive drinking and smoking, these factors will further affect the quality of sperm and lead to fertility decline. The increase of age will also increase the rate of abnormal sperm in men, which will increase the risk of some genetic diseases in children. A study found that children with fathers over 40 years old are more likely to suffer from autism, schizophrenia and other mental diseases than children with younger fathers.

2、 Children's health problems

There is also a certain correlation between the late childbirth of men and the incidence of some childhood diseases. Research shows that the risk of genetic diseases related to congenital heart disease, Down syndrome and other chromosomal abnormalities is increased when the father is too old. In addition, fathers of children with mental retardation, learning difficulties and other problems are also generally older.

3、 Father's health risks

Late childbearing by men also increases individual health risks. The study found that children whose fathers are over 45 years old are more likely to suffer from cancer, cardiovascular diseases and other common diseases in adulthood. In addition, the male reproductive system will also have problems with age, for example, late childbirth can increase the risk of prostate cancer.

4、 Family stability and educational factors

The elderly male childbearing may bring some problems in family stability and educational factors. For example, the father's age may lead to differences in father participation between children and peers, which may affect the intimate relationship between father and son, and may even lead to barriers to intergenerational communication. In addition, in terms of education, the father's understanding and physical activity ability may be weakened during the child's growth. Conclusion: Male elder childbearing has certain influence and risk in fertility decline, children's health problems, father's own health risks, family stability and education factors. Therefore, men should try to give birth within an appropriate age range to ensure the health of children and the stable development of the family.
